“Excuse me” we break apart, getting caught up in the moment both of us had completely forgotten about Tasha, who was currently looking the other way with her hands over her eyes “Can you guys at least save it for later?”Christian lets out a hearty laugh which was strange to hear, it was only minutes ago that he had been laid motionless on the bed “Who is the human?” he murmurs against my neck, his breathe fanning out over my skin as he wraps his arms around me and pulls me in, my back pressing against his chest sending a shiver through me.I was about to introduce her, when she stretches out a hand towards us “My name is Tasha, you must be Christian, it is nice to finally meet you” she has a big grin on her face.Christian tenses “You’re bold for a human!”“I wouldn’t have gotten this far in life if I wasn’t”“And what are you doing here?” Christi

Walking out of the bedroom, I keep my hand locked with Christians whilst Tasha trots along beside us. Marco had already said he expected my mate to be the King and I needed to show him that Christian was in fact very much alive.As we round the corner of the empty hallway we practically run into Breydon “My Queen” but he stops as he catches sight of Christian and Tasha “I thought you were dead Alpha Christian and you” he points at Tasha “How are you still alive?”Christian clears his throat, “It is a weird and wonderful thing being a hybrid”Breydon looks confused “What is it Breydon, forgot that he is like me?”“No, not at all my Queen, I am just surprised to see him standing here” he continues to give Tasha a look of annoyance and lust, he wanted her for himself“You cannot harm her Breydon, do you understand?”“Yes” he grumbles  “Rud

“Lucian, this is a private meeting”Has Breydon not seen Marcos head?The guy rolls his eyes and moves to the open end of the table, throwing Marco’s head towards us, until it lands with a thud on the severed neck inches away from me, Marco’s eyes wide in fear.“Thought you might want this” Lucian walks away“STOP!” I call out to him, I needed to know what had happened to Marco.Lucian looks back over his shoulder  a smirk on his face and carries on walking. What the fuck just happened, he somehow managed to ignore my order, the first person to have done that.Glancing at Marco’s face, I want to puke, as much as I had killed people, seeing just a head had my stomach doing backflips.It’s the humanity in youBut it was too late, I was running towards the bin and just about make it in time when Breydon appears next to me as I wipe my face “Would you l

Christian carries me back to my room, hurrying down the corridors and praying to the Moon Goddess that we were not seen as neither of us had any clothes but as he opens my bedroom door he almost drops me, inside were Calli and Tasha deep in conversation.Tasha looks away immediately, covering her eyes with her hands whilst Calli accuses us of not focussing on the current problem.“Can you at least give us a minute?” Christian glares at Calli and she turns her back on us as we pull some clothes from the wardrobe. I silently huff, why is it this kept happening, I just wanted to be happy and to be alone with my mate.The fresh mark on my neck was different to Daryl’s, it itched like crazy and when I run my fingers over it, the skin is raised, almost puckered.“Is it supposed to do this?” I mutter at Christian as we dress“Yes, it’s the venom in our fangs, the vampire side”Glancing in the mirror i

“You have accepted him” he sneers at usDaryl’s dark hair hangs in wild curls, his beard had grown out and he looked a mess, like he hadn't slept in days, yet his dark eyes were full of hunger and still, I felt a connection to him. I didn’t understand, how could I still feel something for him after everything he had done to me, not only that we were never true mates, it had all been a lie.“How did you get in?” Christian and I stand side by side determined not to let him get past usHe laughs and Christians fingers wrap around my own, was he trying to stop me from attacking Daryl or stop himself“She asked you a question Daryl, how did you get in?”Again he laughs “It would seem that not everyone is on your side. I know you’re in heat too” he sniffs the air “You will always belong to me”“No. I will never be yours” A mixture of heat and anger was racing
